Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK, April 19.—The boys •till like to argue about Jack Dempsey. On this particular occasion they engaged in what practically amounted to a clinic. How good was he anyhow? Was he good or lucky? Could he ever have gotten anywhere without Jack Kearns? Who deserved the credit, Dempsey or Kearns? Where will Dempsey be fated in the future? How hard could he hit? How much ring generalship did he possess? Was he a guy who bulled his way to victory or was he in there thinking? Mr. Mumbline Hennessey, who is so because he has a wav of straining most or hi* words through his beard, obervad that Demnsev was an Interesting fighter but not a great one. ' He had t 0 fl n j S h lights in a hurrv" aid Mr. Hennessey. "If anv guv could c; rrv Dempsey he was through. He was luckv his flchts ended auickiv, but a few of them, Willard, for Instance, came mightv hrar not ending soon enough. Demnsev didnt. have a thing left when the gong ounded for the fourth round at Toledo." Mr. Hennessey had lust finished when Mr Kearns. In the flesh, came along. How long could Demnsev keen uo his Dace' ? he whs asked. "AH dav,” answered Mr. Kearns, who. as a rule, is not given to sneaking in 1 nmnlimentarv terms of Dempsey. "Demnsev was fast and he was strong as ' bull. He had all kinds of endurance. He as able to end his bouts earlv because he had a whirlwind attack that carried onDonents off their feet, but he could have cot going at the same pace all dav." nun MR. KEARNS was asked how he would rate Dempsey, and in doing so, would he please forget his sentiments and his prejudices. ‘He was a great fighter at one time. But he has been through for years. He was through before he met Tunney. There are five or six heavyweights around today who can lake him. I honestly think Mickey Walker can take him, but since I am managing Walker and am supposed to be at odds with Dempsey, my opinion with reference to them is always discounted. Just the same, if Walker walked into the ring with him tomorrow, I would be betting on Mickey to win.” "When was Dempsey at his height?" That’s an easy one. In his fight with Billy Miske at St. Paul, a ten-rounder. Later he knocked out Miske at Benton Harbor, but Miske was on his wav out when that happened We learned later on he was a very sick man and had taken the bout to get, himself some dough At St. Paul, he Dut up a marvelous fight, against Dempsey. He had everything. If Dempsey hadn't been at his peak in the St. Paul fight, he never would have won." Mr. Kearns was asked how he compared Dempsey with the champions who came before him. "I don’t think there is any question but that he would have licked Sullivan. I am pretty sure. too. he would have beaten Jeffries. Fitzsimmons was Just as good a hitter and a better ring general and I don t know what would have happened if they had met. He probably wouid have worn Corbett down, but .Johnson is one man T know he couldn’t have whipped.” fr ” Why was Johnson such a great fight- " Well. he was big and strong. You couldn’t hurt him. And there never was a hotter defensive fighter. Kven the greatest hitter is helpless if he can’t get through a defense, and Johnson had a perfect, defense. On ton of that, he was a damaging hitter himself. You don’t hear much about his hitting because he stood out so conspicuously as a defensive fighter. But he could hit when he had to and plenty hard." "And what about Willard?” "Strictly a tramp There never was anv doubt in mv mind that Dempsey would bowl him over. In fact I had some of m.v friends bet that Demnsev would win by a knockout In the first round. The only reason thev didn’t collect was that the referee lost his head. I could have whipped him mvself that, dav.” Up to this point the hovs had listened to Mr. Kearns with respectful attention. But this was too much—his saving ihat he could have whipped Willard himself. Mr. Kearns has never won a fight. His reputation as the world’s worst fighter still remains unchallenged.

While limiting the Phillies to six scattered hits Monday, Phelps opposed a parade of four Philadelphia pitchers, Grabowski, Elliot, Nichols and Adams, who yielded twelve safeties. Phclp's efforts were aided by Glen Wright’s three hits, including a homer, and Hack Wilsons triple. Another excellent pitching performance by Charlie Root enabled the Chicago Cubs to beat the champion Cardinals, 3 to 1, and take the National League lead from the Phillies. Root allowed only two hits until the ninth inning, when the Cards got two more and tallied their lone run after an error by Herman. Vince Barton homered for the first Bruin tally, and doubles by Moore and Hartnett, followed by Flint Rhem’s wildness accounted for two more runs.

Dutch Zwilling’s Kansas City*Blues will invade the stadium Wednesday for a brief series of thrfee tilts and will be followed by the Milwaukee Brewers. Zwilling has his Cowboy pastimers setting a swift pace and they are in second place with four victories against one defeat. Cold weather and rain brought about two postponements for the Blues. Zwilling’s crew finished second in 1931 after a sensational drive that started In mid-season and lifted the club out of the league cellar to become runners-up to the champion Saints. Leifield’s Apostles looked the part of winners here Monday as they tackled the Indians for the third time, but a lead of 4 to 0 was washed out during the second half of the battle and Tribe rallies in the sixth, seventh and eighth produced five markers and the contest. The winning run was carried home by Curt Walker in the

righthander held the locals to one safety in five stanzas. Both teams used two other flingers, Logan and Heving for the Hoosiers and Harriss and Elliott for St. Paul. The collapse of the Saints was unexpected. Logan led off the Tribe sixth and reached second when Norman dropped his fly in right field, the sun playing hob with the young man as he set himself for the catch. Goldman advanced Logan to third with a single to left and Pid Purdy walloped a triple to right, scoring Logan and Goldman, and Purdy crossed the plate after the catch on Hale’s fly to Koster in center. Wingard Triples; Fitz Singles In the seventh Wingard blasted a triple to right after one down and Slim Harriss relieved Strelecki as Fitzgerald batted for Logan. Fitz hit the first ball pitched for a single to center, scoring Wingard with the tying run. As related previously, Walker and Sigafoos put the game in the Tribe bag in the eighth. St. Paul hopped off to a two-run lead in the third on a double by Strelecki, a single by Koster and a wild throwin by Rosenberg. In the fifth the visitors put over two more tallies. Reese and Koster drew free transportation, Todt sacrificed, Fenner was given an intentional pass, filling the sacks,’ and Hopkins crashed a single to left, registering Reese and Koster. ' Heving Fans Three That was all for Berly and young Bob Logan, southpaw, took up the Indian pitching to dispose of Durst and Norman. The rookie worked cut of tight spots in the sixth and seventh and Joe Heving operated on the Tribe mound in the eighth and. ninth, allowing one hit and striking out three Saints. The Monday triumph gave the Indians a record of six wins in seven starts on the new campaign and the home boys continue to hold first place. St. Paul has dropped seven games in as many starts and six of the defeats were by one-run margins. The 1931 champions are becoming desperate to break into the victory column, for they won’t see their home grounds until April 28.

By United Press HOPKINTON, Mass., April 19. The crack of the starter's gun will start 259 long distance runners today on the thirty-sixth running of the gruelling Boston marathon, which will place one American on the United States Olympic team. Crowds estimated at 300,000 were converging upon Boston to witness the finish of this most important event on the Patriots’ day program.

recently written into the constitution of the major leagues apparently will force Max Carey to dispose of him. Rosenfeld was purchased from Birmingham in 1926. Since then he has been optioned out to Atlanta, Toledo and Hartford. He is 26, and Brooklyn feels that one more year in the minors will fit him for the big time. Brooklyn officials would like to place him with Hartford again this year. But the major league clause forbids a club from disposing of a player to a minor league team which is controlled by the major club, after the player has been optioned out three times. Consequently, before April 28. Brooklyn must decide what, they will do with Max. At present Rosenfeld is training in the south with Hartford, and he is so desirous of remaining with that outfit this year that he has asked Judge Landis to make an exception of him and let him stay with Hartford. But Judge Landis has refused. Max will come north with Hartford, but he must leave that club when the Eastern League season opens, April 28.
